| Description
The Kyoritsu KT 170 is a robust, LED-based voltage and continuity tester designed for professionals to safely and reliably check the presence and level of voltage in electrical circuits. It is a dual-pole tester, meaning it uses two probes to measure the potential difference between two points, providing a more reliable result than a single-probe tester. |
| Key Features
Voltage testing: Clearly indicates AC and DC voltages from 12V up to 690V using large, bright LEDs, which are visible even in poorly lit areas. Continuity testing: Includes a continuity test with an audible buzzer and LED indication to check for a complete electrical path. Phase rotation test: A vital feature for electricians working with three-phase installations, allowing for safe determination of phase sequence. Single-pole phase test: A separate test that indicates the presence of phase voltage by using only one probe, which is useful for quick checks. Ergonomic and durable design: The tester has a compact, lightweight body that fits comfortably in hand. It is also built to withstand harsh environments with an IP65 rating for water and dust resistance. High safety rating: Rated for IEC 61010-1 CAT IV 600V and CAT III 690V. Probe tip protection: Comes with a probe protection cover and variable test tips (2mm or 4mm diameter). Self-diagnostic function: Performs an automatic self-test to ensure the unit is functioning correctly. Convenience features: Includes a built-in white LED flashlight for illuminating the test point, auto-power ON/OFF, and the ability to perform basic measurements without a battery. |
